Hula Barbie Cake

HELLO GUYS~ sorry my posts have been lacking.. I will get on some crafts and get posting.
So summer is almost here, which means my daughters 5th birthday will be here August 1st. I have  no clue what I am doing for her party this year???? However, I wanted to share with you her cake from her 4TH birthday party last year. 
A”Hula Barbie Beach cake” 
You can buy the barbie cake molds at most craft stores. I got mine at Roberts Crafts. You can certainly use your own barbie. I tried with a blonde one to resemble more my daugthers coloring… but it stood to tall. So I used the “half” barbie that the cake mold comes with. I did however use the bikini top from the blonde beach barbie I bought. I put the barbie’s hair up and added the sunglasses. My little sister helped make the grass hula looking skirt.
First we dyed the white frosting a hula grass green, and frosted the cake all over. Then we used a tiny round tip and started from the top of the skirt following down to make what looked like grass skirt pieces. It was easy.
The cute candles you see were from the dollar store, last year. However, I am sure they have them back for this summer.
I used mini. hair clips that I cut in half and placed on the cake.
It of course, was a hit for the birthday girl… I HOPE i CAN TOP last years party….. WILL SEE!
and here is Hula Barbie saying “HAVE A SLICE!” It was s”girly” Strawberry cake! moist and delish!
